Question
My daughter is 2 years old. Initially, she felt pain when drinking water and had a cough along with a low-grade fever. How is pediatric tonsillitis diagnosed and treated?
Answer
Treatment for pediatric tonsillitis can include symptomatic antibiotic medication, regional drug sprays, or laser therapy. Additionally, pain-relieving medications are administered to alleviate discomfort. If there is a low-grade fever, physical methods to reduce fever can be used. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly. If the condition recurs frequently, it is suggested to consider surgical treatment. After the condition improves, it is recommended to engage in moderate exercise to enhance immunity and prevent recurrence.
